I presume the A contains a Person member? If there is a setter for this,
just call it from C's constructor. Something like:

public C()
{
SetPerson(Person.Paul) ;
}

If there is no method to change the Person part of A, then you are out
of luck.

Consider the following classes A and B.

public class A
{
public enum Person
{
Peter = 0,
Paul = 1
}

public A(Person name)
{
}
}

public class B : A
{
public B() : base(Person.Peter)
{
}
}

public class C : B
{
// ????
}


- A and B are black boxes. I've no way of altering their code.
- I write the C class. I want my C class to have all the capabilities of
the B class except for the enumeration "Person.Peter". I want
"Person.Paul".

Is this possible? How should I define the C class?

Thank you.
